I seem to also be having problems with this patch. My OpenPOWER 720
stopped booting with 2.6.14-git10(and later). Just using defconfig.
64k page size NOT enabled. If I back out the 64k page size patch,
2.6.14-git10 boots. I'm trying to get more info but it is painful.
It dies before xmon is initialized.
I could have sworn that I booted 2.6.14-git7 with the 64k page size
patch applied. But, I can't do that now either.
Some co-workers have successfully booted other POWER systems with these
kernels. So, it must be specific to my hardware/LPAR configuration.
